#Kylia Rates Her Misc Anons

[kyliafanfiction]

All my haters become potaters when i. cook them into a delicious meal

I didn't know Eric Adams was on tumblr. And also a cannibal, apparently.

1/10. Just confusing enough to be just vaguely funny enough to get above zero.

saying ward is only lame idiocy is pretty myopic. all true dykes support Victoria “cop” dallon

...I didn't say Ward was lame idiocy? The anon that 'recommended' Ward referred to idiocy in the worldbuilding, but AFAIK, I haven't called Ward idiotic or lame.

I've said I don't want to read it (and referred to gouging my own eyes out as a preferred thing to do rather than read it) and I've probably said a few other disparaging things about it in a broader sense, but the term 'lame idiocy' has not been among them. I'm not sure I've called anything 'lame idiocy'... ever?

As for supporting Vicky, I do like Vicky? I don't want to read Ward for many reasons, including that by all accounts I don't think I'd really like the version of Vicky that exists in that work, but I do like the Vicky that exists in Worm (such as she is) and some of the fanfics that use the decent (subjectively) parts of Ward to construct a fuller and better picture of the character.

But I doubt an actual supporter of Vicky would call her 'Cop' like that, especially not as a middle name. Leaving aside the fact that I vehemently disagree with that sort of labelling of Vicky (it's not inaccurate, but it is misleading and incomplete and certainly dismissive to just label her 'cop' and move on).

As for 'all true dykes' supporting her, that seems... off? I mean, popular shipping and fanon aside, as far as I'm aware, Victoria remained straight throughout the entire text of Ward (because, as I understand it, the first female MC Wildbow ever wrote that is canonically into girls is the Claw MC). Of course, ship whatever tf you want, Taylor being straight in canon doesn't stop me from shipping her with Amy or Rachel (or doing similar things in other fandoms, from time to time, though I do tend to do it less than some people in modern fandom) or having about ~20 different Pillbug/Skitterpan fic ideas.

So while I'm sure lots of lesbians and bi girls, etc do really like Vicky, hc as bi or gay or pan or w/e and ship her with Ashley or Taylor or Lisa, etc, as do presumably decent numbers ofstraight girls, guys of all sexualities and various fans of other gender identities (nb people, agender people, w/e), she's not like, you know canon sapphic rep or anything.

And again, I do like Vicky. I just don't want to read Ward. I would rather, as I said, gouge my own eyes out with a rusty spoon than read it. I would rather sit down on a cactus. I would rather read Twig. There's certainly things that would be less enjoyable than reading Ward, and there's also probably a good amount of stuff I would enjoy in it. But I do not feel any need or desire to subject myself to 2 million words of a work that I have many reasons to think I wouldn't like.

The fact of the matter is, for all that I am enjoying Worm, there are a lot of things about Worm I don't like. Not because Worm is bad or anything, it's not, it's just not really my kind of story. I'm not and never was the target audience, and I knew that going in, and I knew there were things about it I was never really going to love (the bleakness, for instance, which some people seem to adore, though they may not use the word 'bleak'). There's still a lot I like about Worm, but Ward sounds like it has even more of the stuff I don't like about Worm, and even less of the stuff I do like about it.

Obviously, without reading Ward, I cannot have a fully informed opinion on the work, and you know what, I'm fine with that. I didn't need to read 50 Shades of Grey to know that it's not for me and that I don't want to read it. And if you think that's an unfair example (which, granted, it kind of is), I can also say I don't need to read IT or watch either of the recent IT movies to know that I don't want to read/watch it. Not for me.

Ward's not for me, and I don't want to read it, and unless I was paid to, I wouldn't read it. (Or, I guess, forced at gunpoint, I'd read it then too). But I am not and will not say Ward is a bad work. All said and done, it's probably as good as Worm, or therabouts. So good, even great in places, but by no means a perfect flawless masterpiece. But I'm still not gonna read it.

I don't know if this technically counts as hate, but I am gonna rate this anon with a 0/10.
